Abstract	In one form or another, ocean or marine science courses have existed for decades. Although these courses can effectively integrate the sciences in ways that stimulate student curiosity and interest, they have not yet received formal recognition for the role they could play in improving science education for secondary students. In this article, the authors discuss why ocean science courses are not as prevalent in high schools and, by contrast, why ocean science courses should be taught. Finally, the authors present a framework and suggested resources to show teachers how they can align ocean science concepts to the national standards and become more experienced in strategies for teaching these concepts.
